Life again

Sorry everyone.
I have been consumed with trying to get my parents back to good health. It is incredible how infuriating it is to deal with health care and add to it the confines of Medicare.
I have been learning a lot this past year. I had the felon arrested on June 30th and have been learning a lot about the court system. Now it is Medicare and caregivers. Wow. There is a mint to be made if anyone can find a way to teach the ins and outs of this health thing. Problem is, when it comes up, it comes up fast! And you get so worn out from the day to day that you can't think. And the whole thing is money driven - surprise, surprise. Meanwhile, I'm not making any money because I can't be around to paint.
I know I don't have it bad, I'm lucky I can take off and drive up and put out fires. A dear friend is taking care of both her parents 24/7.But for me, it didn't have to be this hard! Here are some important points I can take from all this thus far.
1) If you suspect anyone, even a family member, is taking advantage of someone in their charge - do something! You're not going to get your things back - ever! Ask forgiveness if you wrongly accuse someone.
2) Use the 40/70 rule. If you're 40 or your parents are 70, have talks about legal papers, wills, options to take for health assistance, etc. There won't be time to discuss it when the need arises.

There - had to get that out. Thanks. I hope everyone is doing well and please know that I will be posting every chance I get! I really love blogging and can't wait to get back to a routine. I hope you won't give up on me.
